Thanks for answer on biguanides, that makes sense.
Donny, draining the pool would probably normally be easier, but I have a fg pool and a high water table. I'm also on a well which cannot handle that volume without sucking sand and on top of that the water is high on iron, which is obviously problematic. As such in my area the cheapest rate for water is $150 for 4000 gallons. Each time I swap out 4000 gallons I'm just diluting, not doing a complete swap so even if 20,000 gallons got me in the cya range I wanted that would be $750. So if the bioactive is giving me results, even incremental ones, it is still a better option for me. Besides, someone needs to be willing to try new things instead of just assuming the old way is always the best way. However, it may turn out swapping water is the only option.
With that being said, CYA after another 24 hours is still 160.
On an unrelated note did the thread from cya guy get deleted?
